Error Audio configuration

When i try to open itunes
it says
"Itunes Cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration
any help would be appreciated

That one is most commonly caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio playback.)

  • Error: "Audio configuration contains unknown items"

    After a few sessions I did on a song I get this error message. The song continues to work. But from time to time this error appears.
    What does it mean? And how can I eliminate it?

    Maybe this happen bacause you put many additional info in your "Aple discussion" profile about the software that you use, but we can also say you the same as Logic message:
    your detailed "Audio configuration" profile info contain a "unknow item"
    Whitch is your audio interface?

    PS: anyway, try to trash Logic preferences.

  • I just moved my itunes library from a win 7 computer to a win 8.1 computer. Getting an error message "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. Can't play CDs or get audio file from web!

    Help! I just moved my itunes library from a Win 7 computer to a new Win 8.1 computer following the instructions on the itunes website. Everything is good except I'm getting an error message on the Win 8 computer if I try to play a CD or get an audio file off of the internet. I get an error message that says "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly. I don't know where to look for or fix the audio configuration on the win 8 computer. As far as I can tell the iTunes configuration looks the same as on the other computers in the house. At this point I don't dare plug my ipod touch into the Win 8 computer for fear it will get messed up.

    I have the same problem and I know that it is due to my PCI Audio driver not being compatible with WIndows 8.1.
    iTunes isn't the only program that can't direct sound to the built-in speakers anymore. The obvious solution would be to update the drivers, but unfortunately Dell does not provide an updated driver for my model, so I am stuck with that.
    However, saying that, only my laptop speakers are affected by this. I can use sound fine on applications where I can choose the output device and direct sound to the head phones, but for some reason iTunes does not let you choose the audio device manually.
    To listen to music I imported the iTunes Library in Windows Media Player and changed the audio output using the following instructions: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/c00d11ba
    However, I would also like to rent movie's from iTunes, 
    Would be great if iTunes would let you choose the output device, too, like most other applications using sound  from Skype to Windows Media Player,...

  • Error message after upgrade to iTunes 11: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point my PC running XP loses all audio.

    Several attempts to upgrade to iTunes 11 have failed.  After an upgrade to 11 the error message reads: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video playback may not operate properly."  At this point--after the upgrade to iTunes 11--my PC running Windows XP loses audio playback for all functions--in iTunes, in the browser and the volume icon disappears from the System Tray.  Only by removing iTunes 11, and then using System Restore to turn back the OS settings can I return the PC to normal functioning.
    I did that.  I reinstalled iTunes 10.5.  Everything seemed fine, but when I try to plug in and copy a CD to my iPhone 4S an error message reads roughly: 'iPhone 4S requires iTunes 10.5 or higher to work.'
    What might be the problem with my audio configuration?
    Why doesn't my iPhone 4S work with iTunes 10.5?  It used to work with iTunes 10.5.
    Please advise.

  • Itunes will not open b/c of Audio configuration error

    Itunes will not open. Get error saying "Itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration." Whats weird is that I haven't changed anything since I last used it (yesterday night). What should I do?

    I had the same problem and had just recently upgraded quicktime. When I followed the instructions on this thread I also made sure the version of Quicktime I installed matched my iTunes version. You might try that.
    It did work for me. I'm wondering if the update to Quicktime caused my problem.

  • Error message in Logic "audio configuration contains unknown items"

    I am using Logic Studio with an apogee Duet and Mac Book Pro.
    So far I love the apogee duet for it's simplicity and sound. I have
    however started to receive this error message working with Logic Studio,
    almost anytime I start a new track, add a plug-in or instrument, etc.
    "Audio Configuration contains unknown items"
    It did not do this from the very beginning but started after a few
    sessions. I have tried re-installing the driver disc for the Duet but it still happens.
    when it does pop-up i can click the ok box and after clicking several times
    it will go away and let me proceed.
    Could anyone please advise me.
    thank you very much.

  • Audio configuration error message

    after upgrading to 7.3.1, i get an error message that reads "itunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration". and, consequently, itunes does not open. i have reset my computer to previous settings and have attempted to remove the update. anyone else having similar problem? everything was fine yesterday...

    Hi ipod777,
    Since iTunes uses QuickTime to play audio/video content in iTunes, that error message most likely indicates that there's a problem with your Quicktime installation.

  • Weird Audio Configuration Error Message

    When I turn on the computer and start up iTunes, everything works fine. The first time. If I close it and then reopen later, I get an error message that says: "iTunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/video playback my not operate properly." Program proceeds to open, but I'm unable to play songs. On the Apple site, it said that an answer to a similar (but not identical) error message was to reinstall QuickTime, which I've done. To no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks.

  • Continual Audio Configuration error

    Every time I open iTunes I get an error saying "iTunes has detected an audio configuration problem" I have downloaded Quicktime and that fixes it only for that session. If I close iTunes, or if I shut down my PC, the next time I open iTunes the error happens again. It is very frustrating! There must be a program that is conflicting somehow, but I don't know where to start. Anyone have any suggestions?

    I have done this 100 times! Downloading uninstalling and reinstalling Quicktime doesn't help. It only fixes it for that session. When I close iTunes and open it up again (without turning off PC), I get the configuration error.

  • Audio configuration problem error message

    I have just upgraded to version 7.1.1 and when I try to open it the following message appears
    i tunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration.
    I have tried returning to the old version, but that just comes up with the error message 200.
    I relly would appreciate any help with this

    Quick Time need to be reinstalled. Uninstall QuickTime and then download and install QuickTime using the QuickTime standalone Installer.Be sure to select the second option that Does Not Include iTune.

  • "audio configuration is damaged" error while while loading "crashed" song

    I've been working on a song for quite a while, I created a new track, moved a copy of a sequence from another track to this new track and opened the media browser to find a sound for the new track. Each preset I tried caused the error message ("audio configuration is damaged") to be displayed and I needed to hit the "ok" button 6 or 7 times to let the song play. Soon Logic crashed completely and now the song won't open at all (same error message every time).
    Any thoughts, suggestions?
    Thanks much!

    Hi everyone,
    I just ran into the "audio configuration is damaged" error twice tonight while working on a project. I wasn't able to recover the first project which cost me about 4 hours of work so I started a new project and after a couple hours got that error again while dragging a sample from the loop browser into a new track. I was able to load up a backup before I got the error, saved that as a new project file and apparently it's working again but clearly this is unacceptable.
    I'm currently considering doing a fresh install of both Mac OS X and Logic Studio.
    Apple, please look into this instead of archiving the threads related to the "audio configuration is damaged" bug. There are at least 10-20 threads already on this topic, yet they always get archived. I'm seriously considering ditching Logic and doing my arranging/composing also in ProTools from now on.

  • Audio Configuration error after installing iTunes 7.1.1

    STEPS:
    1. Launch previous version of iTunes, verify application opens.
    2. Agree to upgrade to latest version of iTunes.
    3. After installation, restart PC and launch application.
    EXPECTED RESULT:
    iTunes 7.1.1 launches
    ACTUAL RESULT:
    iTunes does not launch; error "iTunes cannot be run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration" is generated.
    NOTES:
    I changed nothing between when I last launched iTunes and when I upgraded to the new version. This error message is quite vague - does anyone have any clue what it means? Thanks.

    that's typically caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (itunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)
